Zarqnon the Embarrassed wrote the text for Of Zots and Xoodles: Theodil Creates a Universe, while Frank Louis Allen created the illustrations. This book is a fictional creation. The author's imagination is employed to make the characters, events, and language; nothing in them should be taken literally. Any resemblance to actual events or people, alive or dead, is purely coincidental. This book is mainly about the protagonist, Theodil, and the creation of a universe. In this book, you will see how the protagonist, Theodil, was able to perform his creation of a universe. In 1927, a Belgian Catholic priest inspired the idea for this short book by implying that the universe was born at a single point.

Theodil, the protagonist, discusses his plan to create a new universe while the scene takes place in what appears to be a lecture hall. When Theodil manipulated zots and xoodles to create a new universe, the crowd of voices criticized and complained that they wanted things to stay the same and that the drama was taking too long, even though time didn't exist at this point. The dialogue between Theodil and his audience serves as the format for the book's presentation. Theodil answers his committee's concerns and reservations that they have expressed. Get a copy of this fascinating book to be a silent audience and enjoy Theodil's presentation on the creation of a universe with dots and noodles.

This book has a lot of enjoyable features. Frank Louis Allen, in my opinion, did a superb and competent job with his illustration. The author's puzzling but unique writing style is something else I love. I was impressed by the fact that Zarqnon the Embarrassed's book was free of typos and had numbered pages when I finished reading it. The book is exceptionally well edited.

The only issue I had with this book while reading it was its perplexing nature. Most of the time, Theodil's presentation on the creation of his universe made me furious because I could not comprehend it in a single reading. I rate this book 3 out of 4 stars because I did not appreciate the perplexing nature of the book; it delayed my reading speed and left me confused in most scenes.

I advise anyone interested in science fiction or who wants to learn more about a different theory of how the universe came into being to pick up a copy of this book and relish the emotions and experiences the author conjures.

Numerous enjoyable aspects of this book. With the use of dots and noodles, it explains the universe's creation and evolution. It suggested that the creation of the universe occurred at a single spot.
